Micks Nacht

Aperçu

Johanna can't believe her eyes: is it possible that she has just witnessed a murder from outside the meditation pavilion of the "Center of Life"? Jerry dismisses her observation as a "pregnancy hallucination." But the next day, Johanna discovers traces of blood on a wheelbarrow in front of the center. When life coach and founder Mick Sontheimer fails to show up for work, Beissl, Sophia, and Jerry investigate. Max eventually finds Mick's buried body in the woods—stabbed to death, as Dr. Hartmann conclusively determines, before astonishing the investigators by demonstrating some flawless yoga exercises. At the meditation center, the peaceful façade begins to crumble. Mick, who hosted a radio show in Berchtesgaden, had stolen the wife of radio technician Kai Arnold. Presenter Marie Doldinger provides Arnold—who left a threatening message on Mick's answering machine—with an alibi. Mick's coaching colleague Konstantin Wahler, who takes over his sessions, is under financial pressure: he paid heavily for his training but was only allowed to market Mick's program. Mick's current partner, sound bowl therapist Lisa Sterzel, on the other hand, appears genuinely distraught. Johanna conducts her own investigation in a prenatal class and notices that another participant, Tamara Echternacht, is behaving suspiciously. But when Johanna uncovers her true identity, she suddenly finds herself in mortal danger. Jerry's instincts send him racing to the meditation center—just in time…
